##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
The new model of hearing of individual labour disputes and implementation of its operation in practice is discussed in the paper. After reform, which came into effect on January 1st, 2013, hearings of individual labour disputes have been delegated to the specialised quasi-judicial institutions, which are set up under the territorial divisions of the State Labour Inspectorate of the Republic of Lithuania. The article examines problems arising in practice after the changes of the Labour Code. The analysis is supported with practices of State Labour Inspectorate and the Courts of the Republic of Lithuania in employment cases since January 1st, 2013. The most relevant questions, such as competences of commissions of labour disputes, problems of process of appeal and further prospects, are discussed.
